I'm cool with that. Let's me know we're doing pretty damn good if you have to go back 5 years to grab a W. Appreciate it.

Never heard of 3 doors down, I was thinking something more like this: [Hidden Content]

If you can't beat Nederland your response is invalid.

If Crosby were to go D1, the rematch would most likely happen in the second round.

Drops mic and watches replay on new jumbotron . . . .

We're past SETX, stop being myopic. We're trying to quantify the criteria it takes, as you see it, for being good before we decide what powerhouse definitions are? I just laid out the facts to you. Manvel is the only 5A powerhouse in the entire Houston area, correct? Very simple yes or no would do. IMO, after we beat them 34-0 the calisthenics Angleton performed on y'all made them look like a powerhouse to me. You can either answer or choose to again deflect like a good politician does.

You're from Crosby now man, you don't have to use your PNG modesty anymore. It's ok to say you feel like you will crop-dust somebody if that's what you truly feel. You would be right more often than not, the rest of the time would just be regular wins. If they don't want PC in politics then there's no reason not to say "I feel like we'll kick your teeth in" on a football board.

Well, if you want to keep the #1 spot or OUR rivalry list you better beat us again before BH does.

Cool, I didn't realize Manvel was the only 5A powerhouse in the entire Houston metro area or that Manvel and Cedar Park were the only 5A powerhouses in the region. I would throw in Ennis into the regional power mix but they only have 1 more win than Crosby the last 4 years so I know you don't see them as one. Other than Manvel, which just dropped from 6A and will move back up at the next alignment, Crosby has more wins than every team in the Houston/SETX area. There are currently 65 teams in the region, Crosby has more wins than all but 3. Interesting to know we're Dayton tail grabbers after being up 4-3 in our last 7 game series.

I was in Chicago last week doing some training. The instructor happened to be from Lumberton and did refer to Crosby as a ". . . powerhouse team that gave us in Texas what we refer to as a good 'ole fashion a*& whoopin' ". If you think schools like Foster or Elkins are powerhouses then PAM will be too in 5A. If you look around the state there aren't a lot of teams with over 40 wins the last 4 years, Crosby has that but I'm still sure you would refer to a team like Angleton as a powerhouse with their 32 wins.

I was thinking more like 50

IDK, DC's says they only have six(3/3) starters coming back. If that's true they only return one lineman because I know they return two receivers. Smallest lineman they list is 6-3/280 though, other listed are over 300lbs.

Yeah, BH plays Vidor then Santa Fe which are basically two mediocre to sub-par 5A-D2 schools. Crosby plays Manvel, which was probably the 2nd best 6A team in the state last year and Houston Heights(old Reagan) which took out Foster last year in pre-district and finished 9-2 runner-up to Lamar in the HISD 6A district. Dropping down basically two classifications to start district at home against BH will be a relief. Big difference having 6,380 kids and multiple 3,4 and 5 stars to choose from vs having 1,550 with 0 of those types of those players to choose from while you opponent has some. I'll be surprised if BH keeps it closer than 24. *threw the extra field goal in due to the new kicker from Isreal

Well, CCRed already said y'all sucked. I was going to wait to use that one later on during the season as your playoff hopes diminished. Right now I just think y'all are locked in a Port-A-Can with no toilet seat.

Top 10????????? Y'all should be thankful if you make the "other receiving votes" category. North Shore and Atascocita are right up the street from us and we know full well what would happen if we were ever put on the field with either of them. That being said, we'll gladly slide into the 3 hole.

For Crosby posters: #1 ranked athlete in the nation for 2018, Manvel WR Jalen Preston's highlights from first scrimmage with Brenham: [Hidden Content] Derrick Tucker, 4* A&M commit at safety: [Hidden Content] Alfred Bryant, 3* Indiana commit at DE: [Hidden Content] Caleb Jolivette, RB transfer from Lamar to Manvel for his senior year: [Hidden Content] Brian Johnson, OLB who should be around 20 offers by the end of Spring evals. next year: [Hidden Content]

Interesting article about dropping from 6A to 5A: [Hidden Content]

Like who? So they're going to be the biggest and most athletic O-line in the district but there are several teams in district with better line play? I hope you aren't talking about Nederland, PNG or Central because I saw all of them play and none are on the same level. Don't mistake what you saw them do against kids like K'Lavon Chaisson at North Shore or Terrell Benard from La Porte for anything that anybody in 22-5A can do.

I think Crosby has the talent to beat any 5A team in the state except Manvel, Temple and Denton Ryan. If we lined up week 1 I think Crosby would beat Memorial by double digits, midway through the season that's probably a different story.

What's you definition of dominate? Blowing everybody out, going undefeated, only being tested once? Only one team played Crosby within a touchdown during the regular season last year, do you feel like they dominated? Can you name any team in the district that has anything better than PAM does currently; QB, RB, WR, OL, DL, DB's? I suspect there's a good chance Harrsion will look like the best coach in that district when he gets to line up his level of athletes with the rest of what's in 22-5A. There is no Summer Creek or CE King to challenge PAM in that district like there was to challenge Crosby in 21-5A, or any other team with high level game changers. They might not be able to win it on talent alone. I'm just telling you they're so talented that stuff like "discipline", "execution" and "playing as team" wont beat them either in that district. They'll have to have an off night when someone else plays over their skis.

This is standard operating procedure between Crosby and Dayton this time of year. Right now we both suck but we're both going to win district. Go figure?

On a serious note, I don't think anybody should be surprised if Humble is the team that ends up pushing Crosby for a district championship. Coach West lost his wife to an illness and I'm sure the latter stages of that affected his ability at work and subsequently the team's performance. I don't like to use jv scores but I believe Humble was 9-1 last year and coach West could finally have the qb he needs to put points on the board. Top to bottom roster wise they're probably going to have the best collection of athletes in the district. With Terio Brown coming back for his fourth year and most likely his best o-line, a solid qb and a renewed coaching focus, I would watch out for Humble. They could potentially be 4-1 and playing with confidence heading into their week 6 matchup at home against New Caney. *I like Kingwood Park to make some noise in district but they'll be @Barbers Hill, @Crosby and @Dayton. Crosby get Barbers Hill, Kingwood Park, Dayton and Humble all at home.

I agree, first to last.

Under Riordan we average more wins than the total number of game on the regular season schedule, 10.5 per season to be exact. I know everybody I've talked to is excited just like every other town around this time. We just know there's a slightly different grading scale over here on 2100. Dayton is excited because kids want to play for the team, we already have that. BH is happy because they have a good coach, we already have that. Ned is happy about some kid named Blaysin, we have plenty of kids people call blaysin'. IDK what PNG is happy about, but I'm sure we have that covered too. I'm sure Ned fans will find positives no matter how they look against Crosby next week but I think you'll hear more from Crosby posters after the Manvel game, win or lose.

So wait, we were talking about winning state but what you really felt like is that we were worried about beating Dayton instead??????? Last year Trinity and Cedar Hill were a combined 19-1 before they lost in the first and second rounds, both were top 5 teams. Even teams with multiple titles have off nights early. Not to mention that Ridge Point team was probably the 3rd best team in the state at the end of the season, they're currently pick as the favorite to win their 6A Fort Bend district after being moved up. Please don't misinterpret our expectations in the state playoffs for being worried about winning district games, maybe that's what Dayton is judged on now, but Crosby no longer is.
